What's that you say?

I love quotes. I can't say I'm very articulate and don't think fast on my feet, so I like it when other people have witty things to say. So....I think instead of a description, I'm going to try to post my current favorite quote in the sidebar and then I'll say a few things about it. Here's the first:

The world is governed more by appearances than by realities, so that it is fully
as necessary to seem to know something as to know it.

-Daniel Webster

So true, so true. I wonder if this is the premise upon which the Holiday Inn Express commercials are based?
